Эта книга – первый нескучный научпоп о современной медицине, о наших болячках, современных лекарствах и человеческом теле. Никита Жуков, молодой врач-невролог из Санкт-Петербурга, автор ультрапопулярного проекта «Encyclopatia» (от Encyclopedia pathologicae – патологическая энциклопедия), который посещают более 100 000 человек в день. «Модицина» – это критика традиционных заблуждений, противоречащих науке. Серьезные дядьки – для которых Никита, казалось бы, не авторитет – обсуждают его научно-сатирические статьи на медицинских форумах, критикуют, хвалят и спорят до потери пульса. «Минуту назад вы знали, что такое магифрения?» – encyclopatia.ru. «Эта книга – другая, не очень привычная для нас и совершенно непривычная для медицины форма, продолжающая традиции принципа Питера, закона Мерфи, закона Паркинсона в эпоху интернета», – Зорин Никита Александрович, M. D., психиатр, Ph.D., доцент, член президиума московского отделения Общества специалистов доказательной медицины (ОСДМ). В формате pdf A4 сохранен издательский дизайн.
